I do think the weather could be a problem for The Chargers, but it isn't as if they aren't expecting it. These professionals should be too focused to let the cold bother tham too much.
I wouldn't be concerned who started as Quarter back. Rivers has found some form in recent weeks and before he went off against The Colts he was looking pretty good.
I knew little about Volek before that game, but he impressed me in the final quarter, when most people thought The Chargers would fold without Rivers. I keep hearing about his success at The Titans with nothing like the offence he has to work with at San Diego. The only concern would be lack of game practice. A full game might be just out of reach.
I don't agree with those who think The Pats will run away with this one. Sure, they will almost certainly win, but I cannot see a winning margin any higher than 14.
The Pats defence will be tested to the limit with the Chargers recievers being massive to say the least. Jackon is huge and can collect almost anything at the moment.
Pats have come close to defeat a few times so I have heard this season and many have said it was the opposition making silly mistakes rather than the Pats being too good that have kept them undefeated this year.
Would love to see The Chargers win, but I think The Pats will just edge it.
